• Establishing and maintaining effective relationships with clients, industry networks and internal stakeholders to grow revenue and deliver value to our clients.
• Promoting an inclusive, supportive and collaborative working environment within the team.

• Demonstrated consulting mindset, including proactive stakeholder engagement, strategic problem-solving, project management skills and the ability to deliver tailored solutions for our clients.
• Practical knowledge of relevant Australian Standards, such as AS/NZS 3000, switchboards and hazardous areas standards.
• Understanding of LV electrical protection, motor control, PLCs, instrumentation, SCADA system and industrial networks.
